Abstract

This paper aims at studying a broad class of mathematical programming with non-differentiable vanishing constraints. First, we are interested in some various qualification conditions for the problem. Then, these constraint qualifications are applied to obtain, under different conditions, several stationary conditions of type Karush/Kuhn–Tucker.
